no we was not aware that you have to do this there are a few things you dont get told...
We got a reciept from taray saying we had paid so its not too dodgy
We got a builders mortgage and was not told that the 1% commision was to be taken out AFTER the notory paperwork had arrived back some 3 weeks after signing,,We got told that all the costs come out on the day of signing or the next day, So we had a shock to find 1330E missing from our account but HEY HO!! viva espania.
tal luego amigos
